Hmmmm... That's certainly not cheap, even by the San Francisco Bay
Area standards.  With the post-Katrina economy, NOLA was very
inexpensive last November.  A night at Windsor Court (one of the
better hotels NOLA) were $200 / night, and most other hotels, even in
the French Quarters were quite a bit less.

Still, it's the time that costs the most.  As Mark points out, a 4
hour drive from a major airport is a detriment, although I'd love to
visit Natchitoches.
